Hi Folks,
When Umpqua Birds was first moved to Freelists, the default setup was that
when anyone hit reply, it went to everyone on the list. Occasionally, one of
us would hit reply and write a personal note to the sender, only to find out
it went to the whole group. Sometimes this was a little embarrassing; most
of the time it was inconsequential. In any case, we changed the default
setting so that if one hits reply the message goes only to the original
sender. To reply to the whole group, one needs to click a dropdown arrow in
your email program and select REPLY ALL.
This works okay, but some people forget that hitting reply goes only to the
original sender. I often reply to all in an effort to continue a group
conversation, but then someone will reply only to me, thus ending the
"group" conversation, and making me wonder whether or not I should reply and
"re-send" the message to the whole group, or whether the person intended to
send their message only to me.
Sooo, I'm considering changing the settings back to the default "reply"
being to the entire group. It is, after all, a group list.
Let me know what you think--or reply all and let everyone know. Thanks.
